​​​Ownership and system of responsability of the Electronic Site of the Ministry of Justice​.

Article 3. 2 of Royal Decree 1671/2009, of 6 November, which partially implements Law 11/2007, of 22 June, on citizens' electronic access to public services, determines that the Order creating the Site must identify its owner, as well as the body or bodies in charge of management and the services made available to citizens therein.

In compliance with this precept, article 4 a) of Order JUS/458/2010 of 25 February, which creates the Electronic Site of the Ministry of Justice, establishes that the Electronic Site of the Ministry of Justice (https://sede.mjusticia.gob.es) is owned and is the responsibility of the Under-Secretariat of the Department.

With regard to the liability regime of the Site, this article states:

  1. The Information and Communications Technology Division will be responsible for the technological management of the site.
  2. Those responsible for the management, content and services made available to citizens on the electronic site shall be the heads of the Department's management centres and, where appropriate, of the bodies that are incorporated into the Site. Responsibility shall correspond to the competences attributed to each of the holders by the legislation in force.
  3. The management of the common contents of the site and coordination with the Department's management centres and the Bodies incorporated, where appropriate, into the site shall be the responsibility of the Department's Under-Secretariat.

In accordance with Art. 10.2 of Law 11/2007, of 22 June, on citizens' electronic access to Public Services, "the establishment of an electronic site entails the responsibility of the owner for the integrity, veracity and updating of the information and services that can be accessed through it".

Article 7.1 of the Royal Decree partially implementing the aforementioned Law adds that "The owner of the electronic site that contains a link to another site for which a different public body or administration is responsible, shall not be responsible for the integrity, veracity or updating of that linked site. The site shall establish the necessary means for the citizen to know whether the information or service he is accessing corresponds to the headquarters itself or to an access point that does not have the character of a site or to a third party".

In this sense, the E-Office indicates through messages concerning the links whether by accessing them you leave the E-Office or remain in it.
